My Daughter’s Natural Hair Is Beautiful

Nia-Marie and Amber-Jade the loves of my life. 

I love my babies- can you tell. As young girls growing up, I would always say to them ”You can not relax your hair until you are 18 and then I pray you don’t”. Guest what- they never did. They understood the endless possibilites they had with natural- unprocessed hair. What other texture can go from Afro to curly to straight and back again to an Afro; the best of all worlds. Nia’s natural hair is very fine- she understood that if she relaxed her hair it would appear thin . Amber loves to wear her hair curly. She understood that once relaxed, she could kiss her natural curls good-bye. I really did do something right. Love ya girls- my shinning examples of living with  the endless possibilities of natural hair. DHB.

  1. I also have natural hair & I love it! Never had a relaxer, never will. I admit that sometimes I have fantasies of looking like Beyonce, but I always come back to my senses. A la natural works for me.

  2. Who doesn’t. You know my look a like fantasy is Janet Jackson. I relaxed my hair once-upon-a-time over 25 years ago and haven’t relaxed it since. I love, love, love my natural hair. I love the way it feels, wears and sass it has when it is uncooperative. It is the only way to be to experience true freedom- afro, straight, curly and back to afro. What more could you ask for!

  3. i thought it was too cool that your daughter’s name was spelled Almost like mine. mine is Nia-Marii god bless

  4. It is cool how close the names are. God Bless you as well. Nia means purpose and my Aunts name is Marie. I combined the names to make one beautiful name for a beautiful daughter.
